Crimean Tatar political prisoner was beaten in a pre-trial detention center and his personal belongings were taken away

During the transfer from pre-trial detention center No. 1 to pre-trial detention center No. 2 in Simferopol, the guards hit the Crimean Tatar Ekrem Krosh several times. In addition, during the reception, his personal belongings and products were taken away from him. The new detention center has harsher conditions, and the officers tried to forbid the man from praying.

Ekrem Krosh was detained in January after searches. He was charged under the article on participation in the activities of a terrorist organization (part 2 of article 205.5 of the Criminal Code). Such in the Russian Federation is the Islamic political party Hizb ut-Tahrir. It is banned in Russia, but in different countries of the world and Europe, including Ukraine, it operates absolutely legally.
